Consistently recognizing and appreciating the work of others on a daily basis is key, as people do not quit their jobs because they feel reminded of why their work matters. Whether as a manager or a principal, showing appreciation and acknowledging the purpose behind the work done by others can significantly impact their motivation and sense of fulfillment. Going beyond simple reminders, integrating appreciation into management practices is essential for fostering a culture of recognition and support.
If a leader does not provide employees with a primary motivation, something else will fill that gap. This week, Pat and the team discuss alignment around clarity and the difference between micro and macro motivations.
